92 Years of Teaching and Learning

Since 1928, the Media, Communications and Journalism Department has prepared thousands
of students for professional media careers. The department currently offers courses
in advertising, broadcast journalism, film, photography, digital journalism, public
relations and video production.

MCJ Mission Statement

We teach students the importance and value of media, communications and journalism,
and why, where, when and how to communicate ethically and responsibly in those fields. Through blending theory, professional practice and hands-on learning, we build leaders who can think critically, write well and thrive in rapidly changing
environments.

Our Vision

MCJ strives to be a national academic leader by designing student experiences that create a thriving environment. We work to foster growth, excellence
and collaboration through deliberate practice, multiple layers of feedback, and structured reflection
with an emphasis on civic and community engagement that enhances life. We aim to celebrate mutual
respect, inclusion and diversity as essential pieces of success in the classroom,
our professions and as productive global citizens.

Congratulations Class of 2020

Cheers to our MCJ grads! Congratulations to the class of 2020. Here is a video of your graduation messages.

& Humanities and from MCJ faculty.

Curriculum Changes

The department recently adopted an overhaul of its curriculum. Students who entered
Fresno State beginning in fall 2020 will be subject to the requirements of this new
curriculum. Students who began their Fresno State studies before fall 2020 will continue
to study under their existing options but will be able to take some of the new classes
offered. For an explanation of all the changes, go to http://www.fresnostate.edu/artshum/mcj/majors-minors/index.html

Is MCJ Right for You?

Two entities at Fresno State -- MCJ and the Department of Communication -- both are
in the communications field but have different missions and offer entirely different
curricula. To learn how the two departments differ, check out this flyer.
